"Gezicht op kasteel Mörby vanuit het noorden en slot Margretelund" is a 1669 etching by Jean Lepautre that depicts two castles in Sweden, Mörby and Margretelund. The etching is in the style of a bird's-eye view, with the castles situated in the foreground and the surrounding countryside in the background. The viewer's perspective is positioned at a high point, allowing for a comprehensive view of the architectural structures and surrounding landscapes. Lepautre's meticulous detail and skillful use of light and shadow render the buildings and landscape with life-like clarity. The etching's architectural accuracy and scenic beauty make it a valuable document for both architectural historians and landscape artists. This work is now a part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
